Last week’s move to commission the Anna Regina Multilateral School (ARMS) as one of the newest sixth form institutions in the country and its subsequent description as the first in Region Two (Pomeroon-Supenaam) is not sitting well with one of the school’s former Deputy Headmasters.

National awardee and veteran educator Walter B Alexander said he was somewhat stunned after reports surfaced in the daily newspapers and online that this is the first time that a school on the Essequibo Coast is offering sixth form schooling.
